Thanks for the patch.
Comment 3 Christoph Wickert 2012-08-31 21:53:13 UTC 
Sorry I never managed to look into this. I wanted to re-do all the patches to have them match the ones in the bug reports instead of just applying yours on top. Then somebody else committed in the meantime and I accidentally deleted all my work and never found the time to do it all again. Anyway, this has now been fixed in 1.4.0. Sorry it took so long.
